Awake Craniotomy for Drug-Resistant Non-Tumor Epilepsy: A Systematic Review of Feasibility, Reported Safety, and Seizure Outcomes

2026-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Introduction: Complete resection of the epileptogenic zone offers the best chance of seizure control in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. However, surgical management remains challenging when the epileptogenic zone is located within or adjacent to eloquent brain regions. Awake craniotomy (AC), combined with intraoperative functional mapping, has the potential to maximize resection...
